About Me!

Welcome to the zoo! I'm Melissa, a mom who's truly living the life of Riley. I've been blessed with a wonderful husband, an absolutely amazing daughter, a happy home, a successful work life and much more! Thanks for taking a break from your journey to learn more about mine.

When children are young, they love to imitate their parents and other grown-ups. Mimicking adults like this is key and helps little ones learn how to do more grown up tasks, such as eat, cook, dress themselves and the like. Riley absolutely LOVES to play "kitchen" and pretend grocery store.

Learning Resources has just the ticket for taking that imaginative level of play to the next level, with their Farmer's Market Color Sorting Set. Keep reading to learn more!

The Farmer's Market Color Sorting Set from Learning Resources is designed for children ages 3 to 7 years old and is a bushel of fun! You'll receive five small, labeled baskets for sorting twenty-five pieces of healthy food. Each piece of food included is extremely realistic looking and even washable.

This play set comes complete with an activity booklet full of great ideas on how parents can integrate even more learning games using the Farmer's Market Color Sorting Set. This toy is a fun way to help children learn about eating right, develop color and food recognition skills, all while sorting their little hearts out!

Riley absolutely loved the Farmer's Market Color Sorting Set from Learning Resources! She loves holding impromptu picnics with this set as well as using them for "pretend grocery store". She then makes sure to take her choices back to her kitchen, cook them up and sort them into their own special bins before serving them up to her father and me.

I love this toy too, for it has really helped develop her recognition of certain fruits and vegetables and has also introduced her to comparing and contrasting various items. The Farmer's Market Color Sorting Set is the perfect combination of education and fun and I know it will help my daughter develop healthy eating habits which she'll use for the rest of her life. If you have a preschooler with an active imagination who loves to pretend, then the Farmer's Market Color Sorting Set is sure to be a hit!

Disclosure: I received the Farmer's Market Color Sorting Set from Learning Resources in order to facilitate my review. No other compensation was received. This product review is based on my own personal experiences with this item and is completely honest and objective.

I'm a former 7th grade Science teacher turned stay-at-home mom that lives in Houston, Texas. I am married to my college sweetheart and have a beautiful daughter named Riley, who definitely keeps me on my toes! I am also involved in starting a small business which would both manufacture and sell an invention that I've patented, called Toothpaste 2 Go. I love interacting with my readers and hope to learn as much about you as you learn about me!
